A Mutare teenager’s audacious plan to acquire a new cellphone through illicit means resulted in a tragic loss of life.
The 17-year-old teenager, whose identity remains protected, stands accused of orchestrating a daring robbery that ultimately claimed the life of a bus driver.
The 17-year-old teenager has been arrested for the murder of an Inter Africa bus driver, Lembo Kembo, who had been sent to deliver a brand new cellphone to her.
The tragic turn of events occurred when the bus driver clung onto the vehicle, demanding payment, as the teenager sped away at high speed.
The teenager who resides in the NHB Section of Sakubva and her accomplice 32-year-old Linnet Kashiri of Area C, Dangamvura conspired to rob a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra from a phone seller.
The duo went on to order the cellphone online and were instructed to send the payment through Mukuru money transfer agency. However, they allegedly refused to comply.
As part of her plan to deceive the seller, the teenager convinced them to entrust the cellphone to a bus driver for delivery to Mutare and promised to give the bus driver the money upon receipt.
